With a flavorful seasoning, these grilled shrimp are the perfect start to any summer meal. Serve with pasta and vegetables, or rice pilaf for a complete meal. These versatile shrimp are also great for a summer salad using fresh crisp greens and savory cheese or even fruit.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

1 clove garlic, minced

1 Tbsp olive oil

ground black pepper to taste

1 Tbsp Old Bay seasoning

1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley

1 lb medium shrimp, heads and shells removed, de-veined, tails on

4 metal or wooden skewers

Steps

Preheat grill to medium high heat. Whisk together mustard, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, pepper, Old Bay seasoning and parsley in a large bowl. Add shrimp and let marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water as the shrimp marinate. This will help prevent them from scorching when on the grill.

Skewer shrimp in two places, tail and head, to keep the shrimp in place. Grill each skewer for 2 minutes per side - shrimp should be pink and opaque when done.
